Newcastle Fight Night - 17th May 2009

Alex Abusin was honoured to be invited to fight Craig Jose, a massively more experienced fighter ranked in the UK's top 3.

Both fighters finishing round 5 at the same blistering pace that both had set throughout the contest. The final score cards refected the impact of that 8 count!

Alex extends his gratitude to Craig for the opportunity, Craig Jose is possibly one of the nicest guys you could ever fight!
